I agree, but it also doesn't change the fact that it is true.

The elites don't like the free speech of the internet...

Rockefeller expresses it openly...

It isn't much of a conspiracy it is simple logical reasoning of cause and effect.

theres a logical explanation for some things, most not

mods pls delete, I posted to the wrong thread

great topic, this is something that should be taught in school.

No it doesnt. And Rockefeller does not own the Internet. Most media execs are not only appreciative of the Internet but actively try to utilize it to further their own media empires.

Well that's your opinion, but I think the future will reveal otherwise...

No one is talking about "media execs"

Just giving a friendly "bump" to this important thread. Will try to add what I can after reading through.

But reinvigorates my confidence in ATS. Some exceptionally knowledgeable and thoughtful people around here. They just get lost in the crowd sometimes.

Exactly, so we should probably be more concerned by the more prevalent delusions that have more control of the infrastructure of our society...

What would that be for example? Can you give examples?

Lets see...I "learned" on ATS today...

"Pepsi is a Zionist Plot"

"There is no evidence that planes hit the WTC"

"2012 is actually 2008"

hmmm....

Its "theories" such as these that are so much more damaging to the reputation of the conspiracy-theorist than evualations of the msm.

One could almost think they were "planted" in order to discredit CTs in general.

Invasion of the Body Snatchers

I used to love paranoid-science-fiction. The type where even the main characters very best friends, that assured him there was no conspiracy, were in on the plot. I remember "Total Recall" where Arnie has a suspicion about a Marsian Conspiracy, but his wife (who is part of the conspiracy) assures him all is well. I remember

Logans Run
Soylent Green
1984
Brave New World
Minority Report
Village of the Damned
Invasion of the Body Snatchers
The Matrix

and many, many more. I used to think these are the best movies around because they build an awareness of "something being wrong in the world, that we cant quite put our fingers on". But on the other hand, its movies like these that also foster some of the kind of exaggerated paranoia found here.

I would bet good money that 99% of this websites visitors have watched these classics with eager fascination.

Also wouldn't it serve the ATS community well to work together towards truth, a joint effort in research and fact finding,?

Instead we choose sides and ridicule and undermine anyone who starts a topic that doesn't suit our particular political agenda.
